This top celebrity got drunk and acted crazy, and everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry bur

After Renren Daily stepped in to support Lü Ming, major official media outlets began reporting on last night's "Asian King" program one after another.

Once state media intervened, the online discussions vanished instantly, and the commotion died down.

[Holy crap, state media!]

【No, am I seeing things? State media is backing them up?】

[Signature, really! I haven't seen official media outlets supporting a celebrity in ages!]

[The most crucial point is this direct and straightforward endorsement; didn't you guys notice that the article was pinned to the top?]

Does this nobody even deserve it? This guy's manners are terrible! Isn't he being a bit thoughtless?

[You're telling me there's something wrong with a washed-up celebrity? Did they commit murder or arson, or have some kind of scandal or dark history? It's just a couple of sentences!]

[Exactly! Based on what he said on the show last night, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. Even my dad said, "Good job, you washed-up actor!"]

[No problem, my mom's almost forty and she's still asking me how to be a fan of celebrities!]

【Huh? We have the same mom?】

[A friend of women, huh!]

Welcome everyone who loves Huka to join our Huka family!

Compared to the previous online discussions and buzz, the impact of official media's actions on those within the circle is completely different.

It's worth noting that over the years, very few celebrities have actually managed to get official media outlets to endorse them.

Each of them holds an unshakeable position in their respective circles.

To put it simply, even without mentioning Zhang Yimou, although official media outlets have never personally endorsed him, due to several large-scale exhibitions, almost everyone instinctively believes that Zhang Yimou is the top director in China, and his status is unmatched by any other director.

Now, with official media outlets stepping in to support them, many who were previously eager to act have backed down and abandoned their ulterior motives.
They can't afford to offend Lü Ming now.

"Wait, what gives this guy the right?"

Looking at the news on the computer that official media had come out to support Lü Ming, Lu Chuan couldn't help but slam her fist on the table in anger, her eyes filled with fury.

It should be noted that Lu Chuan and Lü Ming had already become enemies at the Harper's Bazaar Charity Gala.

In Lu Chuan's view, Lü Ming, this junior, showed her no respect and then humiliated her severely, which made Lu Chuan very angry.

After the Harper's Bazaar Charity Gala, in order to cut off Lü Ming's path into the film industry, Lu Chuan directly contacted a group of directors in the industry and blacklisted Lü Ming.

Faced with Lu Chuan's request at the time, most directors in the industry gave Lu Chuan face.

Although Lü Ming is quite popular, he hasn't made a name for himself in the film industry yet, let alone acted in any movies.

As for the wildly popular web series "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer," it was completely ignored by directors in the film industry.

It's just a web series!

In the eyes of directors in the film industry, it was something that couldn't be presented in a respectable way, and they wouldn't even give it a second glance.

Every year, so many big stars in the TV and web drama circles rack their brains trying to squeeze into the film industry, but very few of them can actually gain a foothold in the film industry, so nobody cares about Lü Ming.

Compared to a young actor with some popularity, Lu Chuan's position in the film industry is at least more secure.

Therefore, when Lu Chuan makes a request, most directors will give her face.

There was absolutely no need for Lü Ming to offend Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan was extremely pleased with herself when she saw the result.

He thought he had severely suppressed Lü Ming, and that Lü Ming would soon bow his head and admit his mistake due to the pressure.

But after waiting and waiting, they still didn't receive an apology from Lü Ming. Instead, they only saw news that Lü Ming was filming "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City".

Just as Lu Chuan was getting a little annoyed, she suddenly saw the news that Lü Ming had appeared on the "Asian King" program.

This is a quagmire!
Lu Chuan was well aware of the complexities involved. She had thought that Lü Ming would suffer a major setback, but to her surprise, Lü Ming shone brightly on the show.

What Lu Chuan didn't expect was that the official media would directly support Lü Ming because of his performance in this so-called variety show, elevating him to a 'god-like' status and creating a golden image for him.

You should know that when Lu Chuan saw these news reports this morning, he immediately contacted Zhuo Wei, the big paparazzi, ready to stir up some drama.

Moreover, according to what Lu Chuan knew, it wasn't just him.

Many companies in the industry are also pulling the strings behind the scenes, especially Huayue, where Lü Ming previously worked. They put in a lot of effort, arranging numerous marketing accounts and online trolls to stir up trouble for Lü Ming online, hoping to smear him.

But they didn't expect that just when they thought they were about to successfully steer the tide, the official media suddenly stepped in, instantly calming down the online uproar.

Faced with the official media's reaction, Lu Chuan and the others, no matter how upset they were, dared not make any more moves and stopped what they were doing.

As these individuals withdrew from their activities, the online situation naturally returned to normal.

Lu Chuan couldn't help but feel jealous of the fate of the official media.

Lu Chuan couldn't understand why the authorities would endorse someone like Lü Ming, a privilege that even a renowned director like himself didn't receive.

As for Lü Ming, he's just an actor who's never even made a movie.

"Luckily I met him early!"

On the other side, Huang, the movie star, looked at the situation online and felt a sense of relief that he and Lü Ming had eased some of their conflicts.

Since the last "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer", Huang Yingdi, who rose from humble beginnings, quickly recognized Lü Ming's potential. Unlike Hong Lei, he didn't stubbornly stick to his guns and instead sought out Lu Chuan to mediate.

Although the reconciliation ultimately failed due to Lu Chuan's actions, and although they did not resolve their conflict and become friends, their relationship improved considerably.

Now that official media have intervened, Huang Yingdi knows he made a very wise choice.

As things stand, as long as Lü Ming doesn't make any fundamental mistakes in the future, his position in the entertainment industry is virtually unshakeable, and nothing can affect him.

Recalling Lu Chuan's various actions in the industry during this period, Huang Yingdi couldn't help but sneer.

With state media getting involved, it's clear they're standing up for Lü Ming. Lü Ming doesn't care about the film industry's bans anymore. Even if Lu Chuan or other directors in the film industry don't cast him in their films, it won't have much of an impact on him. Mainstream, patriotic films will definitely not bypass Lü Ming.

If Lü Ming wanted to, he could easily make a name for himself in the film industry.

It can be said that Lu Chuan's efforts were completely in vain.

In fact, according to Huang Yingdi, quite a few directors or film companies are probably already getting restless.

These days, the fan economy is booming. Top-tier actors like Wu Qian can play leading or important roles in some top-budget movies, and even ordinary popular actors can play roles in ordinary movies.

And what about Lü Ming?

Currently, there is a clear lead among traffic stars in the Chinese entertainment industry, with one person's popularity exceeding that of all the other traffic stars combined.

With that level of popularity and buzz, almost no film crew or production company in mainland China could withstand it now.

If anyone could invite Lü Ming to star in a movie, it would definitely make headlines during the preparation stage, and the box office revenue contributed by fans alone would be at least one or two hundred million more.

One or two hundred million is absolutely not an exaggeration!

If we calculate based on the current domestic movie ticket price of 30 to 40 yuan, that would mean several million more movie viewings.

With a fan base of several million, Lü Ming's number is definitely not large, not to mention that a considerable number of die-hard fans will rewatch the video multiple times.

More importantly, Lü Ming is a good actor!
Compared to profiting from fan economy, they wouldn't care if actors like Wu Qian, whose acting skills are practically non-existent, were given leading or important roles, let alone Lü Ming.

It's important to know that Lü Ming's acting skills have been proven by the market; even Huang, the film emperor, had to promise that Lü Ming's acting skills are absolutely top-notch.

If Lü Ming stars in their movie, as long as the story is decent, it will surely be a box office and critical success.

Who wouldn't want such results?
Meanwhile, Lu Ming, who had just gotten out of bed, received a call from his assistant.

"What did you say? State media wants to interview me?"

As Lu Ming listened to his assistant's words on the other end of the phone, he couldn't help but rub his wide eyes, somewhat unable to believe what his assistant had just said.

Lü Ming is well aware of his situation. Due to his crazy performances on various variety shows, he never thought he would receive official recognition.

After all, the authorities want steady and serious artists, not artists like him.

This is why, despite Lü Ming's rising fame and popularity, he has never received any invitations or interviews from official media or programs.

Not only was Lü Ming puzzled, but even his assistant was equally confused.

To be honest, long after Lü Ming became famous, his assistants had contacted some formal media outlets and official media to arrange an interview in order to boost his popularity.

After all, interviews with official media outlets or formal programs and media are very useful for artists to improve their positive image.

However, the official media and formal programs and media had never responded to the requests made by Lü Ming before. But this time, before the assistants could even speak, Zhuang Er TV Station sent an invitation to interview Lü Ming and even offered to visit the filming crew of "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City" in Xinjiang Province.

This is Zhuang Er TV Station!
Compared to it, even Hunan TV seems somewhat lackluster.

"Accept it!"

Faced with the interview invitation from Zhuang Er TV station, Lü Ming couldn't think of a reason to refuse, so he asked his assistant to agree.

Just after I finished a call with my assistant, Li Yan suddenly called.

"You received an interview request?"

After the call connected, Li Yan cheerfully asked Lü Ming.

"Master Li, is that you?"

Upon hearing Li Yan's words, Lü Ming couldn't help but ask Li Yan a question.

"I'm not qualified!"

Li Yan chuckled and then explained to Lü Ming.

After listening to Li Yan's explanation, Lü Ming finally understood what had happened.

For a long time, official media have had some doubts about Lü Ming. Although Lü Ming is quite famous and doesn't have much dirt on him, there are just too many controversies surrounding him.

Whether it's the online discussions or some of Lü Ming's actions, official media outlets have expressed some concern about him.

Let alone supporting Lü Ming, they have never even invited him to give an interview.

However, Lü Ming's performance on the live broadcast of "Asian King" last night was really too good. Whether it was what he said on stage or the song "Ode to Young China", it made the leaders above treat Lü Ming much better.

It's worth noting that the authorities have long been dissatisfied with the current state of affairs in the entertainment industry, especially the chaotic behavior of fans, and have always wanted to rectify the situation, but simply haven't found a suitable entry point.

What Lü Ming said last night was absolutely correct in the eyes of the leaders above.

If it were only these things, it wouldn't be enough to dispel the concerns of the higher-ups.

However, it wasn't just these leaders who watched the live stream last night; people like Li Yan's former superiors also saw it, and they had a very good impression of Lü Ming.

After learning of the concerns raised by the higher-ups, these elders took the initiative to speak highly of Lü Ming. Even Li Yan's former superior vouched for Lü Ming, guaranteeing that a child who could say such things would never do anything bad, which finally dispelled the concerns of the higher-ups.

Therefore, after learning that some people online were stirring up trouble for Lü Ming, the leaders of the State Administration of Radio and Television directly instructed the official media to stand up for Lü Ming, hoping to use Lü Ming as an example to rectify the current chaotic entertainment industry.

"Thank you so much!"

Lu Ming asked Li Yan on the other end of the phone with a grateful expression, hoping that he could help him express his thanks.

Although whether or not official media outlets endorsed him didn't have much impact on Lü Ming, the fact that Li Yan's former superiors were willing to stand up for him and vouch for him, even though they were complete strangers, moved Lü Ming deeply.

This is no ordinary favor!
"We should be the ones thanking you!"

Li Yan nodded, indicating that he would speak on Lü Ming's behalf. After a brief chat with Lü Ming, he didn't say anything more.

For Li Yan, Lü Ming was also a great benefactor, directly solving the problems Hunan TV was facing. Without Lü Ming, they didn't know what Hunan TV would be in now. (End of Chapter)
